I have completed the Masters of Science (M.Sc.) in Physics obtained degree in 2014. Later in 2014, selected as a Ph.D. candidate under the supervision of Prof. K. Ramamurthi, Department of Physics, SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Chennai, Tamil Nadu. In connection to this, I have completed the Doctorate Degree entitled "Investigations on vanadium oxide and fluorine doped vanadium oxide films deposited by spray pyrolysis method and hydrothermally grown V2O5 films and MWCNT/V2O5 composite films for electrochromic applications” in Physics (2019).

The current research in Postdoctoral Research Fellow working under the supervision of Dr. Ali Akbari-Fakhrabadi, Associate Professor, Advanced Materials Laboratory (AMLab), Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Chile, Chile. The current project is intended to explore trimetallic cobalt (Co) based spinel oxide electrocatalyst with special emphasis on design and synthesis for application as fuel cell. The pace of innovation is to develop carbon supported hybrid trimetallic Co based spinel oxide electrocatalyst and investigate the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) for fuel cell application.

Turning Waste into Raw Materials for the Ceramic Industry.

Waste materials were once seen as a burden but are increasingly being redefined as valuable resources for ceramic production. Through advances in materials engineering, waste can be used as secondary raw materials in the ceramic industry. This shift enables more circular and resource-efficient ceramic manufacturing systems.

Implementing 3D-Printed Technical Ceramics in Regulated Medical Fields.

Bringing a new manufacturing technology into medicine requires far more than producing an impressive component. In highly regulated fields, innovation must be translated into repeatable processes, documented quality, reliable materials and, ultimately, evidence of clinical value. Lithoz has spent more than a decade building this bridge for Lithography-based Ceramic Manufacturing (LCM).
